'92 stalling on wife 200

Hey,

My wife's '92 is stalling on her:

-at slow speeds may stall completely then restart

-at faster speeds hesitates/loss of power

I've checked/rotated the fuses so far, she is able to get along but reports back to me what I described. Car will start normally and last night ran as normal when we ran an errand. On her 20 minute ride to work part of on a highway she had hesitation, as she neared work it hesitated on a ramp and stalled as she pulled into the parking spot which was 20 yards from the ramp.

What I have done: cleaned the throttle body 3 months ago, replaced the fuel filter two years ago. I've not checked for vacuum leaks at this point but car has a normal idle. I have not jumped the fuel filter terminals at the fuse box to see that both are running; I suspect they are. Fuses have been doing OK and have a little dialectric on them; I'll check them again. Other than that, the car needs a tune up, perhaps that will do it but I can't imagine the air filter being that clogged-where shall I start?

Josh
